What to do if you have back pain during early pregnancy

I wonder if those expectant mothers have ever experienced back pain during pregnancy, especially when the fetus in the belly grows day by day, the burden on the waist will become heavier. Back pain in pregnant women is a very painful thing. Most of the back pain is caused by the vigorous secretion of estrogen and progesterone, which causes blood accumulation in the pelvic cavity, congestion and congestion. The back pain at this time is generally mild, so pregnant mothers do not need to be too nervous. So, how to relieve back pain during pregnancy? Let me give you some tips!

Sleeping position: If the pregnant mother sleeps in a supine position during pregnancy, the enlarged uterus will press on the aorta at the back, affecting the blood supply to the uterus and causing varying degrees of displacement or compression on various organs, aggravating the symptoms of low back pain. Therefore, it is recommended that mothers lie down, bend their legs first, support their pelvis, and then gently twist their pelvis until their waist is adjusted to a position that they think is more comfortable, and then take a left-side lying position. This can not only reduce the pressure on the internal organs of the uterus, ensure the blood flow to the uterus and placenta, reduce varicose veins in the lower limbs, relieve pressure on the waist, and allow the waist to be relaxed to the greatest extent, but also correct the degree of right rotation of the uterus and improve the problem of malposition of the fetus in the middle and late pregnancy. At the same time, when lying on your left side, bend your legs one after the other. Finally, there are certain requirements for the choice of bed. It is not advisable to use a bed that is too soft. It is necessary to ensure that the human skeleton is naturally and fully supported when lying down.

Getting up: When getting up, do not sit up immediately from a lying position. Instead, turn sideways first and use the strength of your hands to help you get up. Standing posture: Most pregnant mothers like to arch their backs and push their abdomen forward when standing to maintain their body balance, but this posture will increase the burden on the waist. Therefore, when standing, pregnant mothers should lift their heads straight, keep their waists straight, stretch their back muscles, and slightly separate their feet and point them in the same direction to distribute gravity to the thighs and abdomen and reduce the burden on the waist and back. Sitting posture: When sitting down, do not use too much force. First, sit on the edge of the chair, then gently twist your waist, gradually adjust the center of gravity of the body from the spine to the buttocks, then lean your entire back straight against the back of the chair, and place your entire buttocks in the center of the seat. Don't just put half of your buttocks on the edge. After sitting down, keep your shoulders straight, your hips and knees at right angles, and your thighs horizontal. In addition, the heights of the table and chairs should match. Try to find chairs with backrests, and do not choose stools or overly soft sofas.

Housework: You can help with some light housework, but lifting heavy objects, standing on high places to get things, carrying heavy bags, etc., these houseworks will cause pregnant mothers to inadvertently hurt their waists, so it is better to let your husband share these heavy tasks.

Of course, in addition to these, there are also some massage methods to relieve back pain. This is a great opportunity for the expectant father to show his courtesy by giving the pregnant mother a massage every day to relieve her back pain. When massaging, the expectant father puts his five fingers together and places them on both sides of the lumbar vertebrae, with his palms facing inward, and slowly rubs up and down until the area becomes warm.

During pregnancy, you should also pay attention to keeping warm and supplementing nutrition. If the adult's body lacks calcium, vitamins and iron, it will cause back pain, so you must ensure nutrition. I wish you good health!
